Not entirely. It depends on where you want the pipes to exit. I worked with some guys and we ran duals down the sides of the spare tire hold and straight out the back. No problems, and it looked great. Now if you have a body kit, that is a different story. You would then have to route them to match the kits exit points. Which would take some adjustments (cutting).Fresco Bob said:some people consider it ricey to mod a I4 with dual exhaust, but hey, its your car so do what makes you happy. i know with the gen 3 cam the spare wheel well needed "adjusting" to make room for the second pipe, but im not to sure for the gen 4s
Mufflers with dual out lets are not made as a splitter for running dual. They are made to have dual tips. Much like V6 Camrys. So Splitting them off of that would not sound very good.big_p said:if later you start thinkin about putting a kit on your car, dual exhaust might be the way to go because most mufflers come with dual openings for exhaust...i have a catback done for my gen3 2.2 and its fine...its all up to you...you are gonna spend more money
They do make resonators (keep in mind not all resonators are like the one on your own car) that you can place just after the t manifolds. They were originally designed for muscle cars that ran side pipes, but they have now spread into the import world.
A single split muffler sadly won't fit under Camrys do to the placement of the gas tank. You pretty much have to place the muffler right before the rear bumper. Unless you want to get into some major custom work.
If you like the dual look (which i also do), I say do it. The only thing I would worry about, is the sound you would get coming off a 4cyl. If you are running a true dual, you would only have 2 cyl on each pipe, And that will give you a sound similar to a motorcylce. If you are just running a Y-pipe, you will still get the same affect, just not so noticable. So you may want to consider how it will sound before doing it.
Good luck
